Food: Tasteless dishes, stale seafood

Most of the dishes at Huong Vy seemed to miss the taste mark by a wide margin. Descriptions like bland and lackluster were thrown around quite a bit. On top of that, the shrimp was far from fresh, with a hard-to-peel texture indicative of poor ingredient quality. Even the 'best' dishes like Banh Beo Rice Cake and Mi Quang Spicy Yellow Noodles were overshadowed by these disappointments.

  • Okay Value

    Fair prices, open floor plan, staff not welcoming, but cleaner place.

  • Low Quality

    Shrimp not fresh and hard to peel; indicates poor ingredient quality.

Vibe: Depressing and uninviting ambiance

The restaurant's ambiance leaves a lot to be desired. With an outdated and depressing vibe, the overall dining experience was significantly undermined. It’s hard to enjoy even a halfway decent meal in such unappealing surroundings.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Outdated and depressing vibe detracts from the dining experience.

Perks: Frustrating parking and service

The pain point of Huong Vy broadened into its perks too. Parking was a nightmare especially on the weekends, with the lot usually completely packed. The service left an sour taste in mouth - it was described as awful, rude, and frustratingly slow.

  • Great For Groups

    Spacious restaurant, ample seating, caters well to large groups, clean.

  • Hard To Park

    Parking was quite challenging on the weekend, completely packed lot.
